Best Answer

an example of a slightly moveable joint would be the sternoclavicular joint. This is the joint between your collarbone and your sternum (chest). There is some movement at this joint, which is what allows you to shrug or straighten your shoulders, but not nearly as much as one would find in the elbow or hip joints
